Clifton In The Rain / Small Fruit Song Songtext / Lyric

The rain came down like beads

Bouncing on the noses of the

People from the train

A flock of salty ears

Sparkled in the traffic lights

Feet squelched soggy leaves across the grain

I took my love to Clifton in the rain






And all along the way

Wanderers in overcoats with

Collars on parade

And steaming in the night

The listeners in the Troubadour

Guitar player weaves a willow strain

I took my love to Clifton in the rain



Jacqueline Bisset

I saw your movie

Wondered if you really felt that way

Do you ever fear

The images of Hollywood?

Have you felt a shadow of its pain?

I thought of you in Clifton in the rain

"Clifton in the Rain/Small Fruit Song" as written by Alistair Ian Stewart
